POLAR ALIGN without looking through polar scope MAGNETIC vs TRUE NORTH | Sky-Watcher STAR ADVENTURER

CHECK OUT MY ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY LIGHTROOM PRESETS:

In this video I explain how to polar align without looking through polar scope if the view over the celestial pole is blocked by some ground obstacle. I demonstrate on images taken with different focal lengths like 15mm, 24mm, 35mm, 70mm and 200mm when the stars start to trail with inaccurate polar alignment on my Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer. I also discuss the differences between compass true north vs magnetic north on an app and which one should be used with star trackers. I also show the Polar Scope Align Pro mobile app to help with polar alignment with both the azimuth and elevation angle and how to do it as accurately as possible.
